On CNN today, Carl Bernstein, of Watergate fame, reports that people close to Joe Biden —people “who loved him, have supported him, and among them are some people who would raise a lot of money for him” — say his disastrous debate performance wasn’t a “one-off.” There have been, according to these insiders, “15, 20 occasions in the last year and a half when the president has appeared somewhat as he did in that horror show that we witnessed.”Yeah, we know. All of us saw the horror show in a bunch of videos you hacks kept telling us was “misinformation”...

This headline article from the New York Post caught our attention because it has the familiar ring of “51 former intelligence heads” in the 2020 election. Previously, the stacking of experts to create disinformation was used to hide the truth within the Hunter Biden laptop, which was evidence of Joe Biden’s pay-to-play schemes. Now, the “experts” are stacked to claim Joe Biden’s economic policy is better than Donald Trump’s. I will ignore the article’s Freudian optic of the economist speaking at the globalist WEF event, and instead focus on the facts. We have an actual track record of President Trump’s...

Sixteen Nobel Prize-winning economists signed a joint letter Tuesday warning of what they see as economic risks if former President Donald Trump were to serve a second term, including reheated inflation. “While each of us has different views on the particulars of various economic policies, we all agree that Joe Biden’s economic agenda is vastly superior to Donald Trump’s,” the economists wrote. Axios was first to report the letter. “There is rightly a worry that Donald Trump will reignite this inflation, with his fiscally irresponsible budgets,” wrote the group of politically progressive academics...

The trans superiority narrative is a declaration of separation, in essence, of war. In order to accept it, one must reject objective reality, as George Orwell wrote in 1984: “The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.” The narrative is not merely a cry for “trans rights,” but an in-your-face rejection of objective reality that begins before birth. We are now told fetuses know in the womb they are trans, and mentally ill parents are encouraged to believe their infants have similar knowledge and must be transitioned lest...

President Joe Biden's campaign tried to play pot, meet kettle on Thursday by highlighting some of former President Donald Trump's more awkward moments. The @BidenHQ X account shared a nearly 2.5 minute-long video to counter a trio of 'cheap fake' videos where 81-year-old Biden appears to 'freeze' or wander away from world leaders. At recent campaign stops, Trump, 78, has had a field day with these viral videos, knocking Biden for 'not knowing where the hell he is.' 'Here is a montage of Donald Trump getting confused, lost, wandering off, and waving to nobody,' the Biden campaign countered. The clips...

15 Times 2024 Was Orwell’s 1984“Don’t you see that the whole aim of Newspeak is to narrow the range of thought? In the end, we shall make thoughtcrime literally impossible because there will be no words in which to express it.”The novel 1984 is author George Orwell’s cautionary tale of a future totalitarian government that uses mass surveillance to redefine truth and tyrannize citizens. Once a work of fiction, it now reads like a disturbingly accurate picture of the present day. From the left’s rejection of objective truths to the media’s manipulation of language, 2024 is looking increasingly like 1984....

CBS News was forced to remove a video claiming that Joe Biden wandering off at the G7 Summit in Italy was an example of a “cheap fake.” The White House claimed the video was taken out of context, accusing Republicans of creating cheap fake videos to show he has cognitive problems.

The Left’s media narrative factory is working overtime on its latest and greatest attempt at gaslighting. OK, here it is, here’s the whopper you have to believe to be an ally of “our democracy” in good standing: President Joe Biden is fit as a fiddle, yes siree. All those videos you’ve seen of him staring into space, moving awkwardly, falling, garbling words, shaking hands with the air, forgetting names, describing recent conversations with people who’ve been dead for years, and being led around by handlers like a child? Just fake news. Here’s White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre telling reporters...

Listen, I’d support a zombie for president if they promised to nominate originalists for the Supreme Court and deregulate the economy. Do whatever you have to do. But stop telling me that Joe Biden isn’t a mentally and physically fragile man.We can all watch the video of our octogenarian president awkwardly freezing up and staring out at a crowd before former president Barack Obama takes his arm and leads him off the stage.Now, I can tell you from experience, it isn’t normal for a grown man to grab another man’s arm in this manner — unless one of them needs...

“Forced obedience to obvious lies is the essence of totalitarianism. It’s the ultimate flex for psychopaths.” — Dr. Toby Rogers. You realize, don’t you, that everything going on around the Ukraine fiasco on the NATO side is completely insane? The folks running the US government — Barack Obama and his witches’ coven — started the whole thing over there in concert with a gang of corporate players (BlackRock, sundry oil-and-gas companies, Haliburton types, arms-makers, bunch of big banks), plus the dastardly WEF for “guidance” (ha!), looking to grab the mineral wealth of Ukraine and, ultimately, of Russia itself. Nice try....

More Americans may think President Joe Biden tried to sit on a nonexistent chair the other day than know the boring truth that there was, in fact, a chair. The chair-that-was-there was just one of many quick video clips the conservative media ecosystem willed into virality over the past two weeks, leaving fact-checkers and Biden’s team with little chance to catch up. The Republican National Committee, major conservative media outlets and right-wing influencers have succeeded in blasting out videos that they claim show “proof” of Biden’s wandering off, freezing up or even filling his pants with a substance commonly represented...

You don’t need a news outlet to tell you what happened—see for yourself. Watch Joe Biden at the end of his talk with Barack Obama at Saturday night’s glitzfest of a fundraiser in Los Angeles and you decide whether you think it's normal behavior: Biden freezes before Obama grabs his arm and leads him off stage. Yikes! 😳 pic.twitter.com/nCgAGitoQ6— RNC Research (@RNCResearch) June 16, 2024RedState’s Nick Arama summed up her take on the moment:Yikes is right. It's not normal that he just stood there and Obama then had to take his hand to lead him away. How could anyone vote...

The White House has reportedly grown weary of videos that appear to show President Joe Biden experiencing a cognitive decline and right-leaning media reporting on them. A report from the Daily Beast attempted to debunk a series of clips that appeared to show the president experiencing cognitive decline, saying they were either misrepresented or deceptively edited. The outlet did not address the fact that the president has exhibited public gaffes and memory lapses for several months now. From the report: In a statement to The Daily Beast, the White House fumed at the so-called “cheap fake,” which it contends is...
